What was said

"I think the world would be safer with a regime change. I believe it will happen. I cannot tell you when."

Israel’s UN ambassador Danny Danon said on NewsNation that Iran’s leadership is a problem for regional and global stability, not just Israel, and argued the world would be “safer” with regime change. Danon added he expects such a change to happen, without offering a timeline, and framed it as beneficial for Iranians as well as neighbouring states.
